Turtle Art w/ Python | Online Workshop

Python is an open-source coding language that allows us to speak to our computers through step-by-step instructions, and then be able to see (or hear!) the computer’s response. Python can be used to communicate anything from a simple mathematical equation, to an interactive game. We will use Trinket, a free, cloud coding environment, to make our programs come to life.

In this workshop, we’ll explore key coding concepts by experimenting with and adapting code based off of a visual output – made possible by the turtle library. Learners with leave with a customized generative art project powered by python, and access to a step-by-step tutorial to reference if they wish to continue coding after the workshop has ended.

For this workshop, an adult needs to be present in the room with the participant at all times.

Who is this for?     Our Kids Learning Code workshops and events offer female-identified, trans, and non-binary youth ages 9-12 + Guardian opportunities to take action on ideas that will shape our future while leveraging the power of technology. Our learning experiences are much more than learning how to code. Our experiences empower teens to learn problem solving skills, how to turn ideas into reality, exposure to what a future in technology could look like, and much more.
